With an open-air terrace overlooking the meandering Mekong River, Saffron is more than a simple coffee shop to the people of Luang Prabang — it is a profit-for-purpose company assisting smallholder farmers by reinvesting profits. The cafeteria features 100% Arabica coffee beans along with scrumptious delights to go along.
